Supposedly, the season ended a ways back, and this is all pointless. Sooooo.... why am I so looking forward to this game? Because there's two points in Chicago, the BlackHawks need them BAD, but they have to TAKE them from the Blues to get them. The Hawks are currently sitting in 8th place, and it's still a crowded field.
| 7. | Anaheim | 79 | 93 |
| 8. | Chicago | 79 | 93 |
| 9. | Dallas | 79 | 91 |
| 10. | Calgary | 80 | 91 |
This game MEANS something, to both teams. And for the Blues, tonight's game is about
Awww Yaa. According to last night's Gametime paper, the Blues are 10-5-1 when they've played the night before. One area where youth works in our favor.
The Enemy: This is the sixth and final meeting with Shitcago this year, so we already know these guys. Here's the more newsy stuff: The Hawks played just last night, losing in OT to the Habs and then traveling home. In the game, Troy Brouwer lined up Lars Eller (why does that name ring a bell?) for a hit, missed, and injured his shoulder. They are already missing Patrick Sharp (knee injury), Dave Bolland (concussion) and Jordan Hendry (ACL). Scoring has been down the last few games, so Coach Q has been mixing up the lines pretty frequently. The question remains: have they hit rock-bottom, and are ready to bounce back against the Blues.... or are they vulnerable and ready for the Blues to push over the edge?
Further Reading:
Tonight's game is essentially our playoffs for the year. Don't miss it. Puck Drops at 7:00 St Louis time, and will be broadcast on VS for a national audience. Radio, of course on the mighty Y98, er KMOX 1120AM. The GDT will come along shortly beforehand. Until then, this is your pregame warm-up. Gather here, get your Hawks hate on, debate who to root for in the playoffs, and enjoy this kick-ass video mash-up:

Sabbatoogie as Curly would say
Good choice on the tunes CCR. We need to go full monkey wrench into the spokes of that wobbly Blackhawk wagon.

We should probably wait until after the game, but I'm optimistic.
Let's Go Blues!

Barret Jackman is my hero.
Fueled. These new shores burn. Shadow, my sweet shadow, to you I look no more.
Did Conks regrow his epic 'stache?
I’m just wondering who’s gonna play Cochese.
This is odd....
my on screen guide says that the blackhawks game will be also shown on Comcast….how come they get to opt out?
'I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league.'
MARK VIDUKA
I believe Comcast owns Versus
so …. special rules for them?

Jaden Schwartz made 15 on the hockey futures top 15 btw
They don’t consider Shat a prospect, so he’s our second with Allen who got 42nd.
Tarasenko is going to make the top 10, just a question of at what spot.
Oh, and LGB!

Conks gets the start?
WTF over? This is a clutch game and we go with the shaky backup?
It’s a dream right? Someone pinch me.
